by

Summary

  • Fans eagerly await Dragon’s Dogma 2 DLC, though its release remains uncertain.
  • Leaked DLC info has stirred up demand for additional content among players.
  • Mixed reviews at launch aside, fans hope Capcom follows through with the DLC hinted at in a survey.

Players of Dragon’s Dogma 2 are still keenly anticipating expansion DLC over a year after its fantasy action-RPG release. Although hints indicate that DLC for Dragon’s Dogma 2 might be underway, the fan community remains split on its authenticity. However, its most dedicated fans continue to crave more content.

The launch of Dragon’s Dogma 2 in March 2024 received a mix of feedback from players. With approximately 12 years passing between the initial two main installments in the franchise, fans have generally responded favorably to its enhancements over the first game. Particular praise was directed towards the colossal beasts, diverse fighting techniques tied to various weapon types, and an equipment upgrade system that offers multiple routes for creating the most powerful character. However, since its debut, there has been much speculation about when additional content (DLC) would become available.

The discussion about possible upcoming DLC for Dragon’s Dogma 2 has been reignited due to the alleged discovery of it through datamining in early March, which some have claimed as a leak. However, Capcom, both publisher and developer, has not yet confirmed any development of expansion packs. Still, this has sparked a growing interest among players eager for new content, with many taking to forums like Reddit to express their anticipation and share memes related to Dragon’s Dogma 2.

Demand for Dragon’s Dogma 2 DLC is On the Rise Again

Despite some players losing faith in the prospect of future DLC for the game due to over a year of silence from the developer, other enthusiasts have found reason for optimism in a recent Capcom survey hinting at Dragon’s Dogma 2 DLC plans. The survey was launched shortly after the game’s release and included questions about the likelihood of purchasing extensive DLC and the amount players would be willing to spend on it. While some interpret the long gap since the survey as evidence that DLC is not forthcoming, others view it as a promising sign given the lengthy development process in modern gaming, suggesting that Capcom’s early exploration of DLC plans indicates positive developments to come.

As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but feel that there’s still room for more satisfaction from the post-release content of Dragon’s Dogma 2. Yet, it’s reassuring to know that support for the game has been intermittent, even exceeding a year since its release. The recent updates have been addressing niggling issues such as inventory management and achievement registration in the base game. However, these updates are just the tip of the iceberg compared to what we were initially promised, like an endgame dungeon, multiplayer, and boss rush modes, hinted at in the leaks.

Even those who take the leaks at face value are exercising caution, given the departure of series director Hideaki Itsuno from Capcom last August. His absence certainly adds a layer of uncertainty to what lies ahead for this beloved series.
